PrintStill stunned from yesterday's deal. Doug Armstrong has been more aggressive as a GM so far — and he's not offically the GM — than Larry Pleau has been in year. Anyway let's get to the links.

That's it for the links. Brad may have something for later — who knows with him — and I'll have the F-U Friday post up this afternoon.
Now, to watch some World Cup Soccer.

Gotta hate early morning shifts...
anyways the movie is Hot Fuzz and on the Barack signature I see it, I just can’t get over the phantom line they added in on the left. (I know it’s necessary to make the picture, but still.)
HALAK!!!1
OK, I’ll calm down now.
St. Louis Game Time . . . I need another beer.
And I can also write things in 140 characters or fewer.
I caught that THN article.
How nice of the news media to remember that we have a team here, too. Armstrong and JD deserve some sort of credit for, I don’t know, getting us some sort of starting goaltender.
And yes, that’s exactly what it’s like to own a Mac product. Every time a new MacBook Pro comes out it kills me, until I remember how much this one was. And then that feeling’s gone.
Reporter: There`s a "stamp out the Beatles movement" underway in Detroit. What are you going to do about it?
Paul McCartney: We`re going to start a campaign to stamp out Detroit.
Any one catch the US-Slovenia game?
Tremendous comeback, but after that disallowed goal, I kind of feel like a Leafs fan.
I know it's time for hockey because I've started singing "Don't Stop Believing" with the words "...born and raised in FUCK DETRIOT!!!"
as a former player
i cannot believe the stupidity of that official. granted, the US should have never gotten themselves in a 2-0 hole, however, they played like big boys the 2nd half and were flat out robbed. it’s nauseating.
Did I ever tell you about the time Brasky was in a production of The King and I? Well anyway, before the show, Brasky chloroforms the entire cast, and slowly eats them in front of the audience for two hours. The production got pretty good reviews.
Apparently the soccer-officiating gods are extremely thin-skinned.
I made a few cracks about the competence of the ref in the Serbia-Germany match, and it didn’t take long at all for karma to bite my team in the ass.
Either that, or the US needs to get better at slipping anonymous envelopes under the door of the officials’ dressing room.
he'll sign, i wanna order my shersey. french fries eh? i like french fries. so did this guy.
